We talked to a park ranger that is also a Geo-Cacher and we where told that he does believe their litter BUT the main reason is that people have been placing them in sites that are sensitive in and around archaeological sites also places where the protected Big Horn Sheep roam and off the designated trails.
I know your all gonna come back with well we can hike to wherever we want true I believe that and you can but whats happening that he doesn't like is that all the caches hidden in the hills are making trails over otherwise pristine ground now one or two people maybe a year headed on that path are not hurting it but group after group is making new trails and maybe not going as far as they can on the trail but rather as the crow flies.
We were suggested to get a liaison to speak for the group of us that are concerned show some organization, maturity and dedication to come up with maybe guidelines on where we can place them to make sure they are clear of protected sites. Maybe the use of way points from the main trails so people aren't making crazy trails. I know Mark and hes the honorary Mayor of Borrego the state park super among other things he is also is in charge of the Big Horned sheep and their kinda his babies.
So lets get together nominate a liaison, and look at both sides concerns, address each issue and come up with a solution that works out for both parties... and well if all else fails the guns get drawn!
